Press Association.—Copyright. (Received 11.0 a.m.) Melbourne, May 8,

The result of the inquiry into the Wyrallah-Dilkcra collision on April 8 was that the Marine Court considered that the master of the Dilkera should bene taken additional steps towards attempting: to save the lives of those left on the Wyrallah by throwing over lifebuoys with lights, and displaying signals mentioned in the navigation collision regulations. The Cjourt found that the primary cause of the collision was the action of the master of the Wyrallah in leaving his safe and proper course, and steering across the course of the Dilkera, and that the master of the Wyrallah committed a breach of the regulation.
